Subject: Now I get Mason's Children
This is the first time I've heard a coherent version of MS - I'd written it off since first hearing it many years ago.

Most of the songs are played with amazing intensity (Black Peter would get dynamically better with age) - especialy Cumberland Blues. TC's noodling is kind of nice on CB and the feel on the WMD songs is more '69 than '70 alt country.

What a clean clean recording, the cleanest Mason's I've found.

The show is Island friendly, what a tough life these guys had.-lol

This show is absolutely amazing. This is what I wanted to hear. January 1970 in Hawaii? Wow.

A Nice Show (and short download).
Show has a nice mellow flow to it.
Me and My Uncle is played differently than
I've heard it before (just a bit slower) and
I like this version better. You can tell the
crowd dug what they heard. Sound quality is
awesome given that we're talking 1970.
Pigpen does a great King Bee. Pigpen
adds that element of coolness that just rounds
out a show. Some people say that Jerry and
Pigpen are dead, I say they are not- They live
on in the music they left behind. Thank you
archive, my CD collection grew by about 1000%.
